The Historic Preservation Plan Advisory Committee, the consultant team, and City staff have been working to develop a framework that will guide the City's efforts and resources devoted to preservation in the coming years. The Committee started with identifying the community's values around historic preservation. Then, the Committee identified what we want to accomplish (goals), how we can do it (objectives), and actions to implement the plan (strategies). All of this has been based on public input received during public and Committee meetings, and through surveys, the project website, emails, and other activities.

We need your assistance for the next step of the process. Please join us to discuss the potential strategies and the goals and objectives they relate to. We are asking for your help to identify the timing and potential partners to implement each strategy.

*Consent agenda--The consent agenda includes many agenda items that come to a vote without testimony or Council discussion. Should anyone register and wish to speak, the item would be taken off the consent agenda.
